Scene 3:

Nena: Why, Totoy?!

Totoy: Nena, my own.
Nena: And Tony, too. What’s all this? A Canto Boy Reunion? I have come here to greet
the Lady from New York.
Tony: Aling Atang is trying to wake her up.
Nena: To wake her up?! Is she still sleeping??
Mrs. M: No, she’s awake already. She's dressing. Good morning Nena and Totoy.
Nena: Is that you Aling Atang? How you used to pinch and pinch me Aling Atang,
when I was a li’l girl.
Mrs. M: Because you were all naughty, especially you! Always sneaking into our
backyard for mangoes.
Totoy: Do you still have that mango tree?
Mrs. M: Yes. Come and help me carry something in the kitchen.
Nena: Well. Tony.
Tony: You shouldn’t have come today, Nena. I haven’t talked with Kikay yet.
Nena: Not yet! I thought you said it last night.
Tony: I lost my nerve. Use your head. Nena it's not easy breaking off his engagement
with Kikay or with the girl for God sake!!
Nena: How could you ask me to be engaged with you if you’re still engage with Kikay!
Tony: I thought I didn’t belong to Kikay anymore. It's only a secret engagement
anyway. I proposed to her before she left for America. But when she stopped
answering my letters, I considered myself a freeman again.
Nena: And so you proposed to me. But you tell me to keep it a secret!
Tony: Because I found out that Kikay was coming back. Just give me a chance to
explain to Kikay. Then we’ll tell them.
Nena: Well, you better hurry. I’m getting impatient.
Tony: Just give me a chance to be alone with Kikay for a moment..

Scene 7:
Tony: Just one year in New York and you forgot your old friends.
Kikay: Just one year that I’m in New York … and you got engaged with another
woman.
Tony: Be brave, forget, that’s the New York way. Imagine a New York Girl, marrying a
Tondo boy!
Kikay: Oh Tony, you’re wrong, you’re wrong! That was Francesca saying all that. But
Francesca exist no more, Tony, the girl standing before you now, is Kikay.
Kikay: Tony. I’m Kikay, remember me??
Tony: If I remember it right, I was right, I was engaged to a girl named Kikay.
Kikay: Yes, and you’re still engaged to her Tony!
Tony: Welcome home Kikay!!! How was the trip?
